Subject: Lyr ADD: EARLY IN THE MORNING (Louis Jordan)
If it's Louis Jordan's "Early in the Morning" it goes something like this:

Early in the morning and I can't get right
Had a little date with my baby last night
Now it's early in the morning
Early in the morning
Early in the morning and I ain't got nothin but the blues

I went to all the places we used to go
I went to her house but she don't live there no more
Now it's early in the morning ...

I went to her girlfriends house but she was out
I knocked on her mother's door and she began to shout
(get away from there boy)
It's early in the morning ...

Went to Jenny Lou's to get something to eat
The waitress looked at me and said Pops you sure do look beat
I said it's early in the morning ...

Had a lot of money when I started out
Now my baby's gone and my money's run out
And it's early in the morning ...
